Geochronologic and Paleoclimatic Characterization of Quaternary Sediments in the Great Hungarian Plan

From the 14th International Radiocarbon Conference held in Tucson, AZ, May 20-24, 1991.We reconstructed the climate of the Great Hungarian Plain between the years, 7-32 ka BP using a malacothermometer method. The reconstruction is based on seven Gastropoda taxa, for which optimal temperature and tolerance ranges have been determined. The temporal scales of the malacofaunal levels were calibrated with radiocarbon data. We compared our paleotemperature values with the temperature values of existing climatic curves and found the same climatic periods.This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between Radiocarbon and the University of Arizona Libraries.The Radiocarbon archives are made available by Radiocarbon and the University of Arizona Libraries.
